New York, April f2.--[Special Telegram
to the BEE. speaking of PATHS first ap-
pearance in La Traviata at the Metropolitan
opera house last night, the Tribune
says: She was In all things the
same as of old. She was the same
musical miracle that critics of this
generation will never cease marvelling
about. She was also the same brilliant crea-
ture that it has so long been n pleasure to
look upon. and also the same dear bundle OF
pretty atrectations, simulated surprises and
counterfeited emotions that everybody is
perforce compelled to look upon with amia-
blity, because they do not harm her singing
and do serve to actuate the individuality of
her, whom the world delights to honor. She
was the same, too, in that she was surrounded
by those who, in every respect were but fOils.
Artistically, she had but one companion,
| SlgnOr Galassi, who sang like tho whole
hearted, enthusiastic artist that lie is. The
audience was numerous one, but outside of
the boxes 1t was not brilliant in appearance.
The parquet looked rather sombre and was
not entirely full. The balcony and dress cir
Gle, however, were crowded. 1t Is safe to es-
innate that to the managers the house repre-
sented $4,000. The spectators on the walk
in front of the opera house were not salts
fed with the business. Before the first act
was over the parquet seats, which had cost
the spectators 81 were offered for $4.
Madame Patti received an ovation after the
first act, and was called out over and over
again in the course of the evening, and each
time overwhelmed with flowers.

vides that hereafter aliens, before being al
lowed to purchase land in this state, shall
declare their intention to become citizens Of
the United States. Should they fail to tako
out their naturalization papers within six
years thereafter, such lands shall revert to
the state. The bill also provides that all
aliens who now hold lands in this state shall
become citizens within thrc years after
the passage of the bill The message

Altogether the engagement of the
American Opera company was a success,
although the receipts were not what they
should have been. The figures for the

Candidus scored decided hit. The
fact that there was no ballet in "Lohen-
grin" proved disappointment to more
than one man last night. Then some of
the ladies probably felt trihe disap-
pointed but managed to conceal their
chagrin.
